This has changed and we now are paying the price.

I think you're bang on airboxster.
This is a response from Porsche on the same question:
Hello,
Thank you for your comment. Pricing strategy is a long range proposition and does not fluctuate with the currency markets. At certain times, 2000-2003 for instance, our pricing resulted in a discount of Canadian cars versus U.S. cars. We acknowledge that the current situation we are in now reversed and are looking at the impact this may have on our business. However, there is no immediate plan to adjust Canadian pricing. Should you need further assistance please don’t hesitate to call 1-800-Porsche.
Kind Regards,
The Porsche Response Team
